Step 4. Select ESX(i) Host for Snapshot Mounting

At the Location step of the wizard, select an ESXi host to which the clone/virtual copy of the storage snapshot must be mounted. On the selected ESXi host, Veeam Backup & Replication will create a temporary VM and mount disks of the virtualized Microsoft Active Directory to this temporary VM.

To specify a destination for the snapshot clone/virtual copy and temporary VM:

At the Location step of the wizard, click Customize.

Next to the Host field, click Choose and select an ESXi host to which the snapshot clone/virtual copy must be mounted and on which the temporary VM must be created.

Next to the Resource pool field, click Choose and select a resource pool to which you want to place the temporary VM.

Next to the Folder field, click Choose and select a folder to which you want to place the temporary VM.
